Great Puerto Rican Legends and History!

A couple of weeks ago, public schools in Puerto Rico celebrated Spanish week! My daughter made a kite which she draw a book cover of this book. I got curious and bought this book. I remember that I read some of these stories in school a long time ago. Now, I have read them all. Couldn't put it down. Some of the legends we know as a kid, is all here. From Juan Ponce de León to the Pirate Cofresí. Good read! Entertaining!
